The Ricardo Luis Monteiro Afonso iPad is See-Through

Designer Ricardo Luis Monteiro Afonso has taken upon himself to rework Apple's iPad's. While Afonso has not been specifically commissioned by the company, his work is visionary, adding brand new elements to the product's layout and overall look.

The most remarkable aspect of Monteiro's design is its chic transparency. The tablets are entirely see-through, enabling users to sort through Mac applications and features while examining what's going on outside of the tech pieces.

Standard tool remain in tact here, seen in the images via icons dedicated to safari, mail, photos and music. He has therefore done an overhaul of the tablet while staying true to Apple's core features, allowing him to push the brand's current envelope in a realistic manner.
